Holding a broken incense stick in his hand, he angrily scolded Wang Tianxiao: "Are you in such a hurry to eat shit? Can't you see I'm holding incense? Now you've broken it."
Wang Tianxiao glanced at the steps leading to the third floor and decided not to waste any more time talking to this man. Judging from his accent, he was probably a small business owner who had done business in the south or was currently doing business. He thought he had a lot of money, and his clothes were a mix of rustic and Western styles. He was arrogant and disdainful of everyone.
People at that time were generally afraid of wealthy people, which allowed him to act arrogantly.
"I'm sorry, I had something urgent to attend to and I accidentally broke your incense. I'll compensate you for it. How much is the incense?"
"Xiao Yuan" sized up Wang Tianxiao, a mocking smile flashing in her small eyes. "Pay up? You can at least compensate me. This incense is a sacred incense that I specially obtained from Mount Putuo. It has been blessed and consecrated by the immortals of Mount Putuo. Tell me, how much do you want to compensate me?"
Wang Tianxiao was stunned for a moment.
He never expected that he would encounter a scoundrel when he was in such a hurry.
This made him laugh.
Damn it, he even talked about immortals from Mount Putuo. If he hadn't happened to have been to Mount Putuo many times, he would have actually believed this guy's nonsense.
These kinds of people take advantage of the fact that the locals are unsophisticated and haven't seen much of the world.
A bunch of nonsense.
But meeting myself today feels like I've run into a bullet.
Now that things have come to this, he can only try to resolve the issues on this side.
“Then what do you suggest? I can’t exactly go to Mount Putuo to ask for another stick of incense for you,” Wang Tianxiao chuckled. “Besides, we were walking in opposite directions and bumped into each other at the same time. Strictly speaking, we can’t just discuss my responsibility. I could also say that you deliberately stuck the incense on me.”
Isn't this a joke?
Xiao Yuan exclaimed dramatically, "Look at me! Do you think I'm the kind of person who would try to extort money from you? Do you think I'd try to cheat you?"
"Are you alright? Then tell me what to do. One stick of incense costs one yuan. How much do you think the blessings of the immortals in Putuo are worth?"
Xiao Yuan never expected to run into someone as sharp-tongued as Wang Tianxiao. He was thinking of just extorting some money from him.
After all, in his eyes, everyone here was a poor wretch.
"One hundred yuan."
"Why don't you just die?" Wang Tianxiao said with a laugh.
"Huh... what did you say?"
"Why don't you take your incense and die? The immortals of Mount Putuo can bless you to be reincarnated soon, and be reborn as a fat pig in your next life."
"You...I fucking..."
Xiao Yuan got angry and raised her fist to punch Wang Tianxiao in the stomach.
Despite his round and fat appearance, he was quite agile. If Wang Tianxiao hadn't been prepared and wasn't an ordinary person, he might have actually been punched in the stomach.
He grabbed Xiaoyuan's fist and flung him to the side, slamming him against the wall.
He stepped forward, looking down at me coldly and said, "Do you know who I am? If you fight me, do you not know how to die?"
Whenever Wang Tianxiao tries to intimidate someone, his triangular eyes become visible.
These eyes naturally appear fierce, even sinister, when angry; someone unfamiliar with them would be startled.
Moreover, Wang Tianxiao was tall and strong, which made him even more intimidating.
Xiao Yuan was immediately startled.
Although he was rich, he was unfamiliar with the place and had no idea that he would meet someone like Wang Tianxiao.
Knowing full well that he was a rich man, she still dared to offend him.
That's just his ignorance.
To put it nicely, people from Northwest China have always been known for their tough and resilient character; to put it bluntly, they are known for their fierce and unruly nature.
People envy the rich, but if the rich act like they're doing the dirty work on everyone else, they'll be left with nothing.
"What...what do you want to do? You want to hit me in front of everyone?"
Xiao Yuan looked at Wang Tianxiao's huge fist and immediately lost her courage.
He subconsciously showed weakness and tried to use the number of people around him to limit Wang Tianxiao.
He couldn't understand for a moment. Just now, Wang Tianxiao was apologizing to him, but in the blink of an eye, he suddenly turned into a fierce and wrathful demon.
"It's nothing. I just wanted to ask how much compensation you owe for this incense stick that was blessed by the immortals. Is it really a hundred yuan? If so, I'll give it to you."
Xiao Yuan looked at Wang Tianxiao helplessly, thinking to herself, "I just said you didn't mean to give me any money."
He was a businessman after all; seeing that he couldn't gain the upper hand, he immediately became very polite, quickly putting on a smiling face and saying, "It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. I was just angry for a moment, brother, please don't take it to heart. We've only met by chance, and today is an auspicious day, there's no need to make things unpleasant, is there?"
Wang Tianxiao stared at Xiaoyuan for a while before slowly letting go and smiling faintly: "You should have said so earlier. I thought you were trying to extort me."
As he spoke, he took out a yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Xiaoyuan's palm. "This is incense money for you. You don't know, but I'm not an ordinary person. I added blessings to this money for you. It's no less than the incense money of the immortals of Putuo."
"That's right, that's right."
Xiao Yuan had no choice but to accept the money; he didn't dare say no.
"Are you sure everything's okay?"
"No, there's absolutely no problem."
"Alright then."
Wang Tianxiao dusted off his hands before turning and leaving without looking at Xiaoyuan again.
Xiao Yuan spat at Wang Tianxiao's retreating figure, silently cursing his family for a long time.
Having resolved this minor incident, Wang Tianxiao continued chasing after them.
He squeezed through the crowd and arrived on the third floor. He looked around but did not see the figure in the yellow shirt.
With his height, he could see almost everyone; if he didn't see someone, then they definitely weren't there.
He didn't know whether the figure resembling his sister had gone to the fourth floor or entered some cave after being tormented by Xiao Yuan, so he quickly went into each cave to take a look.
However, because the cave is dark, lit by kerosene lamps or candles, it is often difficult to see people clearly at a glance. You usually have to go inside to make a careful identification.
But since we're already inside, we can't just come out empty-handed.
Even if he really wanted to come out, the disdainful looks from the old ladies standing in the cave made him feel embarrassed, so he could only put some money in each donation box and light a yellow paper.
But after all that running around, even after he had searched through all the caves on the third and fourth floors, he still couldn't find the figure that looked just like his sister.
